JtvsQitK by Arthur Brisbane NEW BONDS FOR OLD TOO MANY STRIKES SUPPOSE THEY EARN IT? IS,*4* OCTILLIONS ' > Q The United States calls in old bonds, puts out new ones. It will sell for cash $500,000,000 worth of the new bonds. "The result will be loading -on the backs of taxpayers an annual interest charge that would soon pay off the bonds. V The government could have paid off i those bonds and /Eould pay off all other bonds no woutst ending, with new money signed by the govern-i ment, that would have been exactly as good as the bonds themselves. If that were done S2O, WO.OOO.OQV would be put into circulation and | prosperity would return. General Johnson, boss of NRA says strikes may doom labor and the NRA that they are not needed under the President's mediation machinery. NRA may have to veto even the decisions of labor unions when industry and 40.000.000 workers are or- 1 ganised. Mr. Grady, assistant secretary of labor, threatens to ask congress for power to settle all strikes involving federal work, thus opening the way to government -control of unions. If, as General Johnson suggests, I 40,000.000 in the United) States are to be unionised, this question will have to be settled, which is, the most powerful union in the United States, the labor union or the; Union of 48 states. NRA thinks child movie stars are paid “inure than they should be paid’*, and is distressed about “directors receiving five or six times the salary of the President." The directors will quote Johnson: 'Comparisons are odious," and suggest, reasonably, that the question is hot how much they get, but whether they earn what they get. If one mining engineer can tell you where to find gold, and another only tells you where you can find nothing, you would rather have the former, even at a higher salary. You might even divide the gold with him "50-50” , That’s all there is to the “too big ; salary” question. Professor John N. Cameron, mathematician at the -Northwestern State Teachers’ college, offers this If! Judas had taken one dollar from his pieces of silver and invested it at 4 per cent, compounded semi-annual-1 ly. the total would amount now to ten of dollars. > You write figure by putting a dollar mark and a figure 1, followed* by 28 xerss. That is interesting, not important. On the other hand, and most important, General Johnson tells you that if you take one dollar now, spend it, and pul it in circulatin, you are helping a recovery that may not amount to ten thousands octillions but will surely amount to many bil-j lions of American dollars every year, I The doctors, gathered in Chicago, mention 15,608 recent new curse of; cancer, making a total of 24,448 cases known to have been cured. What is more important, Doctor ' Mayo telle us our lives would be longer if we would Jake care of our selves; Most important, proper care will make the brain last ten years longer, in good condition. He suggests that it is useless to keep a man alive until ninety and let his brain die al seventy. Gen. R. E. Wood,, president ofj Sears- Roebuck, who proved, work-! ing for the government on the Panama canal after he came from West Point, that he knows about business and industry, says there is no doubt that conditions are improving and and "pointing upward." His report, coming from innumerable cities and from the world’s biggest mail order enterprise, shows steady gains. General Wood, like everybody else thinks that "something must bo done about money? Miss Perkins, secretary of labor, ■ informs government “conciliators" that “you have no right to tell any editor what be may or may not print; in his news or editorial column." Miss Perkins seems to have read the Con-' stitution. She ought to road it tel some of the others. ' - ; — i . In the news come gruerome items from Shanghai shedding light on our “civilation." Generalissimo Chiang Kai Shek hurriedly is rushing to Kiangsi Providence 10,000 hospital beds to be ready to handle the wounded. Women spend 85 per cent of the household money, according to General Johnson, and he appeals especially to them to support the “BuyNow" campaign, and thus "help to keep the wage earner on a payroll." It to a good idea to add “Buy American* to your “Buy Now" program. Unless you buy goods made in America you are spending money to keep come on a payroll. The government finds that when prohibition goes—and "it will not be long how"—this country will have 40,000,000 gallons of whisky reedy for immediate sale. That ought to last a little while.

At the town board meeting, Tuesday evening, the matter was discussed. As there is but one ticket in the field, the Republican, and as two of the three nominees, Ernest Buchholz and John Harley are now in office and were nominated to continue there, there remains but Emory Strieby, nominated to take the place of Robert Strieby. To avoid the expense of some SSO for an election, it was hoped an election could be avoided. Some one suggested that if Robert Strieby would resign as his t*rm c expires, the board could appoint Emory Strieby in his place. But according to law the board can appoint a member for but two year*, and the position for which Emory Strieby was nominated is for four years. It has been decided to write to the attorney general and learn if an election is necessary, because if the board goes ahead and appoints a successor to Robert Strieby, in a manner not according to law, any actions of the board from that time on would be illegal because all of the members did not obtain positions according to law. BUREAU TO MEET The Turkey Creek Township Farm Bureau will meet Tuesday evening, Oct. 24, in the High school. A speaker is being secured for the evening.
3 CAPTURED ' BY MOORE IN GUN BATTLE One Bold Bandit Ran to Phone, Called for Sheriff to Help<z The three bandits ■Jirdin Fort Wayne who were captured by Freeman Moore, early Monday morning when they attempted to rob the Ruple grocery store at Waveland Beach, Lake Wawasee, are being held in the county jail. Charges of assault with intent to kill, and conspiracy ,to commit’ a felony were filed yesterday afternoon against the three. The first charge refers to the shooting at Moore by Hawthorn and the conspiracy has to do with the attempted burglary of the Wawasee stores. The three bandits are Jimmie Hawthorn, 18, Bill Lamborn, 18, and Bill Laughlin, 20, of Fort Wayne. They were captured by Freeman Moore and lake residents who live near the Ruple grocery after a gun battle between Moose and Hawthorn. When arrested by the sheriff, at the Galloway grocery where he had fled following the gun battle with Moore, Hawthorn, denied having a gun, said that he and two companions were on their way to Michigan on a hunting trip and had stopped at the Ruple grocery to buy some groceries. He said just then this crazy man; —meaning Mr. Moore- « . had driven up and commenced shooting at him. He ran all the way to the Galloway store for help he said. The other two bandits have confessed however, to officers. Lam- „ born said that the three had started from Fort Wayne about 10 o’clock Sunday night. That “Jimmie” had a gun, and that in the fight with Moore which occurred in front of the Ruple grocery, Jimmie did shooi first. When they were taken to jail S pennies were found in the bandits’ pockets. In his confession Lanrt\yrn admitted their intention in (homing to th, lake was to rob the Ruple and Gal loway groceries. Investigation Gy officers have so far found that Lamborn has been arrested previously .on a fighting charge and that Hawthorn has been held for questioning and charged „ with reckless driving in Angola Fremont, Ind.

Although ybung Hawthorn refill to admit he had a gun, or did ar shooting, Mr. Archer, who liv s across from Ruple’s grocery said t bandit shot before Moore did; as xoi the bandit’s two companions.

The gun battle 09, Lake Wawasee early Monday miming resulting in the capture of three big, bad ban dits, proved that lake residents are ready for hold ups. Several robberies on Lake Wawasee were rumored, during the precedirh--10 days, and other robberies wen. feared. So Monday morning about 6 o’cloc" when Mrs. Forrest Galloway looked out the window at Galloway’s groteiy near the fish hatchery, she saw a car stopped there. The store and filling station was not open, and she said when a car stops at a filling K station and the engine is left running it looks suspicious. The car drove on, but returned in a few moments. Then she telephoned to Freeman Moore, manager of the Turkey Creek Golf course and told him there were some suspicious characters on the road.
